Combining the aesthetic appeal of traditional steel doors with the modern performance and design options of themally-broken aluminium frames.
With a choice of single doors, French doors, bifold doors, sliding doors, windows or even internal glass partitions, the IDSystems range of steel-look aluminium doors provides the widest range of configurations to add a traditional element to a new-build home, contemporary extension or period renovation and because they are thermally broken they meet the requirements of Building Regulations Document L.
Our heritage doors combine the much sought-after look of traditional steel doors with modern performance standards and effortless usability. Whether you are replacing an existing set of Crittall™ steel doors or seeking to add character to a new construction then there is an option for you.
The neo-industrial style is deeply rooted in tradition, with slim-framed doors originating in the 1880s and gaining popularity during the Art Deco era of the late 1920s and early 1930s. The style has reemerged as a trend on the back of renovations to period properties, particularly conversions of traditional buildings and warehouse-to-loft renovations in urban areas, into residential homes.
One of the contradictions of the modern trend is the fact that heritage style doors feature more frame and less glass than the equivalent aluminium framed aluminium door or window. Historically the size of available glass was the limiting factor and required more structural elements of frame. Now the frame exists purely for decorative purposes and it is this look that has become so highly sought-after.
